5. When using the pump for example to drain out a room or empty a tank, when all the water has been
pumped out, ten at this moment, unplug the plug form the power source. Lift the pump over a
container. Unscrew the output connector (2) from the discharge port (1) and drain all the water in the
discharge hose into the container.
VI. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Before any intervention on product, ensure that product is disconnected from its power source.
6.1- Maintenance
- In winter the pump must be thoroughly drained or kept in "frost free" conditions.
- Regularly rinse out the pump with clean water, including the suction circuit.
- After using the pump in a swimming pool or garden pond/basin, thoroughly rinse it with clean
water, including the suction line.
- Avoid pumping liquid containing abrasive materials such as sand.
- Before each re-use, ensure that all parts of the pump are in good working order.
- Clean plastic parts with a soft clean cloth.
- Do not use aggressive cleansers (solvents or abrasive cleansers), or an abrasive sponge.
- Locating Ring: over time dirt may deposit causing the rotation of locating ring not smooth enough,
thus making the switch function from clean water mode to dirty water mode lose efficiency,
therefore the pump should be cleaned up thoroughly and regularly.
Use a suitable soft bristle brush to clean the locating ring and the base, and rinse with clean water.
6.2- Breakdown
Never attempt to dismantle the pump.
If necessary, have it checked and repaired by an authorized centre (consult your dealer).
6.3- Troubleshooting
Fault
Reason
Trouble shooting
The pump runs but
doesn't convey the
water
There is air in the pump
Plug and unplug the plug of power line for times
until the pump conveys the water
The water outlet has been blocked
Power off the pump, unplug the power plug and
clear up the water outlet
The water level is lower than
minimum start water level
Hold the handle, adjust the pump into lower intake
condition and make sure the water level is higher
than 5mm
The pump can't run,
or the pump stops
suddenly during
operation
The power cuts off
Check fuse device and electrical connection
The float switch is not on
Lift up the float switch to make it on
The motor is overheating, so the
heat protector of the motor switches
off the pump
Switch off the pump, unplug the plug of power
supply to make the pump cool, clean the water
inlet on the stainless-steel base plate and prevent
dry running
There are foreign matters in the
water outlet
Switch off the pump, unplug the plug of power
supply and get the foreign matters out
The conveying
efficiency falls off
The water outlet has been blocked
Switch off the pump, unplug the plug of power
supply and clean the water inlet area
The conveying
efficiency is of too
low
The conveying efficiency depends
on conveying height, diameter of the
water tube and length of the tube.
Pay attention to the max conveying height, refer to
technical parameters, and if necessary, select
another water tube with different diameter or
length
The water can't be
pumped off, so it
can't reach nominal
technical parameter.
The area is not flat and has foreign
matters
Adjust the pump to a flat location, clear up foreign
matters which affect the placement of the pump
The pump doesn't adjust into clean
water mode.
Turn the pump into clean water mode
